While most are busy living in the excitement that the NFL is back, and sports betting should happen sooner than later in the state, it seems that the “fine-tuning of the rules” hasn’t been a smooth process at all. In fact, with the launch date scheduled for early 2021, concerns are growing that the issues over these proposed regulations could delay the start of…
